BACK FROM TRIP SOUTH AND EAST Manaje- Nebraska Land and Auto Co. Returns from Southern Heoraika and Kansas REPORTS BUMPER CORN CROP J. C. McCorkie returned tast Sat urday from a trip 0 southern Ne braska and northerr. KaMaii. Among the places he visited were York. Nel son and Superior. Nebraska, an.i Mankalo and Republican City. Katis. He formerly lived at Superior. Ne braska, and of course combined th-' pleasure of visiting old friends with business w hile there. He report I that the corn crop In the parts of Nebraska and Kansas which be vis ited will be simply immense. Notwithstanding the bumper crop that is being raised this year in that MCtloa of the country, it will not yield a profit in proportion to the price of land that crops will in Box Hun., count v this year As mentioned else in re In paper. Mr. MoCorkle sold quit nt real estate ret-HrUtly thfl prospects are that a giod deal more will be sold within the ne.v tew months. The Nebraska Land and Auto Company has been doing land office business in automo biles and are now beginning aaaiu Save the Boy Have you n boy to spare? The saloon is a great factory and unless i: can have 2.000.000 from each gen eration for raw material some of j these ractorles must close. One fain- j 11 y out of every five must contribute a boy In order to keep up the sup- ply. Are you voting to help the li quor trafric, or are you voting to save the boy? The I'nion Sigmil tee Kansas' Successful Demonstration Ex-Governor Hoch of Kansiis There are but four possible atti tudes that government can sustain toward the liquor traffic. It must sustain one of these. They are: No license, low license, high license, prohibition. Time was when the liquor traffic was regarded as being as legitimate as any other mercantile busine-s But after awhile it dawned upon thotfnl people that this classification or alignment was not Just right; that the liquor business imposed pub lic burdens upon the people which other lines of busiru.-s did not im pose; that it increased taxation thru the poverty and crime for which it was directly and indirectly responsi ble. And so, to balance accounts, to get even with it, to compel It. to bear its own burdens, a low license was conceived and Imposed. After a while, however. It was discovered that a low license was not adequate for tho purpose for which it was dc- ised, and a high license was origin ated. Thus, the evolution of thot. growing out of experience, progres sed, making, of course, a changing attitude of government toward the traffic. But all these experiments were only eye-openers. They were only the morning twilight ushering in the day of still better things. Now It is known that prohibition is the only logical and adequate at titude of government toward the trafric. If the business is good it ought to be as free as y other mercantile business, but if it is bad, then government should have no partnership whatever with it. To this inevitable conclusion every thinn er must ultimately come. Every time a saloon keeper pays a license, high or low, he admits, by this concession to a discriminative policy, that he If engaged in a business condemned by his neighbors. Kansas has tried prohibition and it has proved a great mo i, educa tional and financial ittceaaa, It is not an accident that our death rate is nearly one-hair less than the av erage in the I'nited States; that more ol our high school graduates go to higher institutions or learning, relatively, than is the case, in any other state; that our assessed per capita wealth exceeds that or any other state: that we have more mon ey per capita in our hanks than have the people of any other state in theirs, reserve banks excluded; that one-third of our counties are without paupers in their poor-houses or prisoners In their jails; that one-half of our convicts are non-residents, transients from other states -anti-prohibition states. 1 believe that no seventeen hun drtd thousand people anywhere else on earth are relatively as sober or as prosperous as are the people of Kanas, and the wise policy of pro hibition has contributed mightliy to this result. Era of Prosperity in Norh Carolina Ex-Governor Glenn of North Caro lina Testifies to Improved Condi tions in His State. At the recent meeting in Louis ville. Ky., of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian church. Ex Gov ernor Glenn told of the advance in his state since it abolished the li quor business: "I come rrom a state where we have driven liquor out and there is no grass growing in the streets of any ot our cities and towns. Where as North Carolina formerly was not edand shametully so only ror her tar, pitch and turpentine-now the state is entering upon an era of prosperity the like of which she nev er has known. She is gaining wit't haps and bounds, and this Is attrib uted to state-wide prohibition. Crime has diminished firty per cent, as Is shown by the fact that forty prisons in the state are empty and idle Formerly mothers were ashamed to allow their children tp go to school because the fathers had taken the clothes rrom their backs that strong drink might be purchased. Since 190", when the state went dry, the school attendance has doubled. There has been an increase or one half In the attendance at the Bap tist, Methodist and Presbyterian churches, and a great, wave or spirit uallty has swept over the state." Verdicts from the Bench Nine-tenths or all the criminals that come before the court are made criminals by the saloon If we could make England sober, we could shut up nine-tenths of her prisons. Chief JustLe Coleridge, Court of King's Bench. The whiskey traffic is the u. ,i, t curse that ever came to mankind. When 4 man begins to sell whiskey there is ground to hold suspicion that he Is dishonest. The whiskey seller stands ready to make a drunk ard of a neighbor's son. a prostitute of his daughter, and to destroy our system of government. Judge Day ton of Federal Court, darktburg, W. Va I have observed with pajnful in terest the very numerous instances in which prisoner!, who have been tried betore me, have, under the in fluence of drink, committed offenses which it was manifested they would not otherwise have committed. I do not hesitate to say that one-half of those falling within the class of first, offenders, who have been fried before me In the country, have com mitted the ofrense ror which thej have been placed upon trial while under the inHuence or drink. Sir Hartley Williams, of Victoria, Aus tralia. Intemperance is one of the most detestable vices cast upon the human family. Any law prohibiting the use of intoxicating liquors should be wel comed and supported in a communi'y of peaceful citizens to their utmost. Crimes hnve been committed as a result of intoxicants, and statistics establish the lamentable certainty that the origin of crime, in most cas es, was caused by the turbulence of inebriation. Home are made desti tute, life becomes unbearable to the faithrul wire and to the devoted moth er, and children are given a horrible example. Prison cells are filled and I the gallows exhibit its most terribie spectacle. Carry out and apply this law to the farthest and you will be considered as benefactors of this ! commonwealth Judge Louis Su'.z- bacher. of the I'. S. District Court, Oklahoma. a From my observation the larger number of violations of the law are chargeable to intoxicants in some form. A considerable majority of the crimes in the circuit court, taken as a whole. Is chargeable either di rectly or indirectly to intoxicating liquors. Certain classes of crime are chargeable almost wholly to la toxicants. Judge .lames H. .Miller of West Virginia I feel sure that at least 75 per cent of all the murder cases as well as would-be murder cases can be traced to the use of intoxicating drinks. 1 really fee that a mora conservative estimate would place the same at M per cent instead of 75 per cent I feel that more than 50 per cent of all crime committed can point to using alcoholic drink as the main contributing cause and that from 60 per cent to 75 per cent of all criminal expense may be im puted to the same cause. 1 am baa ing these estimares upon my obser :i tion and experience as prosecuting attorney for sixteen years follow) by seven years on the bench Judge John B. Wilkinson of the Sevnr j Judicial Court, West Virgin': THE TRIALS OF A TRAVELER to do a land oWce business in real estate. t The Herald is particularly pleased at the increased activity in the real estate business. We are not pre- J t, MMtli what t-ffect the automobile trade has on the "general j business of the place, but we are sure that the sale or land tp parties , who come In here with avie'w to im proving it, ail have a very whole suine effect on the other lines of j business. We are pleased to see any line of legitimate business pros p9f, but especially so when it means d elopiiient of the country and a, toning up of other lines of business as well.
